Conclusion

The information in the book is thoroughly researched. I appreciate the explanation and diction she provided for the word “sigil.” The notes she provides for making your own sigil are very helpful. She begins with early civilizations but reminds the readers they should not be referred to as primitive. She describes different cultures use of symbols including Arabic, Chinese, Egyptian, Berber, and Kabbalist. She covers the history of tattoos, graffiti and tagging. The rest of the book covers the different symbols and meanings. If you are looking for a book on symbols, marks, or sigils, this is definitely a book to read.
